Vitamin e and Periogard drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Vitamin e (tocopherols and tocotrienols) and Periogard (chlorhexidine gluconate). Common drug interactions include pain among females and thrombocytopenia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Vitamin e and Periogard. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 100 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
